In 1815 the London Lead company established its northern headquarters at Middleton in Teesdale and the impact can be seen in the many buildings which symbolise late Victorian prosperity. At the cattle market, on the south side of the river, local farmers sell their sheep and cattle. Special sales of Swaledale rams attract buyers from far afield.
